Sir, Deputy Think of you almost daily. I had a dream that I talked to ya ,you said every thing is fine. thanks ,It still hurt,s miss you bud. DC Dave Carroll Sgt. USMC Kent, I'll always remember the first time we met in 1990. I was a complete mess as a trainee at MCJ trying to clear count with a wooden board full of screwed up JRC's. You took the time to help me out, which will never be forgotten. From that point on I considered you a friend. I think about you often, and you are always in my thoughts and prayers. I look forward to the day we meet again. Mike Valento We went to Jr. High, Calhi and I think, maybe even elementary school together. We played baseball during the summer...on opposing teams and became Deputy Sheriff’s at about the same time…You went to L.A. County and me I went south to the O.C. It was a sad day when I got home, turned on the news and heard about what had happened. I had to do a double take because I couldn’t believe what I had heard. It hit hard when they said your name. It’s hard to hear about a fellow officer being killed in the line of duty. It’s even harder when it is someone you have known for a very long time. You are loved by your family and missed by your friends. Take care and continue to look after them. Deputy W. Dale Garcia I remember when we used to work together (a long time ago) for Von's Grocery Company, before you started your career in law enforcement. You were so much fun to work with, a real upbeat, hardworking guy. And funny too. Once, you had me laughing so hard, I had to hold onto something to keep from falling down. I remember you told me that you had transferred from L.A. County to Riverside County and thought that was great; you would be closer to your home. I remember walking in the door at home, the TV was on, and heard your name on the news; I was shocked. Why should such a thing happen to such a great guy. Your friends still miss you! Dr. Paul T. Ananias I loveee you dad :). Kena Hintergardt. Kent: I still remember our days in the academy together with fondness(LASD Class #255). We also had alot of good times together while working at Los Angeles County Central Jail. I remember how sad it was for me when you made the decision to leave L.A. County for Riverside County Sheriff's Dept. But we all understood you left for the betterment of your family life. And what a family you had and still have. The day you were killed was one of the worst of my life. When ever I run into other people from our academy class, your name seems to alwys come up. You were taken from us too soon but your memory lives on in each of us who knew you. Rest in peace my brother..............Alan Deputy Sheriff Alan Bash "The Badge" Investigator David L Bell May Your soul be at peace on this anniversary(sic) of the day that You made the ultimate sacrifice. Maj M. B. Parlor G-d bless.
Kent, I remember walking into the LASD pre-employment unit and seeing you working behind the counter as an off the streeter. Unfortunately, It took a while for me to get hired. I started the LASD academy in May of 1994, on the wall of the classroom was a memorial to fallen officers. I can recall the feeling I had when I recognized my old school friend. It felt like my heart had been ripped out of my chest. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would see something like that. To this day, I have always felt nothing but pride to have known you. I just wish I could have been there to back you up on that fateful night. I am sure you are missed by many, including me. Take care my brother. I know you are still watching all our backs. Later, Steve Retired Deputy Steve Velasquez You are remembered and you are missed....
Rest in Peace Sir.
We never met, but I have heard so much about you. Your family has been an inspiration to other survivors around the nation. Be proud of the service you provided and the legacy that left. Survivor The remembrances of your family tell the story that the grieving never ends. May God bless your wife, kids and other family members. Thank you for your sacrifice. Anonymous Kent, After so long you are just as missed by your family then ever. All in all the family is doing well. Wayne Hintergardt You are greatly missed. I think about you all the time. Your family misses you immensely. You would be very proud of your two girls and your wife Linda. I look forward to seeing you in heaven. Then we can laugh together for eternity.
